Damn, Nasty scored a lot of points that didn't get called. That's the frustrating part of this sport. It's hard to judge well. Discouraging for the fighters. It's like, "I'd love to hit him again like a I just did, but that was a no-point. So what's the use!"
Where's Anderson's gi? They let him compete in a damn T-shirt? And they let him get away with not bowing? Good grief. I came up in the early 70s, so I'm old-school. You had to bow. You had to show respect for the judges as well as your opponent.
To me this all looks so meaningless by today's competitive martial arts standards, whether you're talking about kickboxing or MMA . I know there are traditionalists who hate MMA, don't consider it representative of "true martial arts", but this stuff proves next to nothing about either "fighters" actual fighting ability and/or ability to give or take significant punishment.
This was 1985. MMA didn't exist. Also was an evening exhibition event after one of the largest tournaments in Canada designed for entertainment for everyone in the evening. Being exhibition it didn't impact rankings.
@@ErikTaylorRemax Doesnt matter this sport karate still exists today. I wasted too many years doing this garbage. Why do you think no one knows about it ? Because its garbage. Its a game of tag nothing else. Trust me I know all about it. MMA, kickboxing, and BJJ shits on all of this ten fold.
Check out Michael "Venom" Page and Raymond Daniels for examples of fighters who have adapted point-fighting into kickboxing/MMA. I agree that this isn't representative of a real fight, but it exercises two aspects of fighting (distance managment and rhythm manipulation) to an extreme degree.
Shows your lack of what point sparring is. Sparring son. All rule sets are to extract certain skills. Skills you know little knowledge on how they are developed. Look again kid.
I loved the drop down evasion..I rocked it myself to much success..those were the best days of Pointfighting in my opinion.

BRUCEJJ66 Where do you think today’s fighters came from? Do you think they woke up and invented fighting? Perspective is lost on some.
